Kiwis are now able to roll around town in stealth with Lexus New Zealand adding the IS 300h Black Line to its lineup.
Included with the special edition model is a grey body colour and an interesting combination of a black roof and bonnet. Other highlights include a black front grille and surround, black stainless steel window frames, satin chrome ornamentation, and a set of 19-inch Enkei alloy wheels are finished in dark grey metallic.

There’s also some changes to the interior, with the leather accented seats from the F Sport making their way inside, available in both red or black.
What’s under the bonnet doesn’t change as you still get a 2.5-litre four-cylinder mated to a hybrid system that produces a combined output of 164kW.
The IS 300h Black Line also comes with the F Sport handling package.
”The design team have had a lot of fun enhancing this look and this is certainly a model that will turn heads,” says Andrew Davis, Vice President of Lexus New Zealand.

Pricing for the Lexus IS 300h Black Line is at $89,900 which includes a four-year unlimited kilometre new vehicle warranty and servicing, eight-year or 160,000km high voltage battery warranty, and Lexus Pluss AA Roadside Assistance package.
Lexus New Zealand’s website states that due to limited supply and high demand, orders for the special edition model are expected to arrive from mid 2023.
